INGESTION The major health threat of Ingestion occurs from the danger of aspiration(breathing)of liquid drops Into the lungs,particularly from vomiting.Aspiration may result in chemical pneumonia(fluid In the lungs), severe lung damage,respiratory failure and even death. Ingestion may cause gastrointestinal disturbances,Including Irritation, nausea,vomiting and diarrhea,and central nervous system(brain)effects similar to alcohol Intoxication.In severe cases,tremors, convulsions,loss of consciousness,coma, respiratory arrest,and death may occur.

CHRONIC EFFECTS and CARCINOGENICITY Contains benzene,a regulated human carcinogen. Benzene has the potential to cause anemia and other blood diseases,Including leukemia,after repeated and prolonged exposure. Exposure to light hydrocarbons in the same boiling range as this product has been associated in animal studies with systemic toxicity. See also Section 11 -Toxicological Information. MEDICAL CONDITIONS AGGRAVATED BY EXPOSURE Irritation from skin exposure may aggravate existing open wounds,skin disorders,and dermatitis(rash). Chronic respiratory disease,liver or kidney dysfunction,or pre-existing central nervous system disorders may be aggravated by exposure. 4.
